As always, custom requests for paintings, portraits, and murals are most welcome, and one may send items to Ashley for custom painting. (Contact for further information.)

Hello dog lovers, artists, crafters of every ilk! Beowulf (Ashley's savvy copilot) has launched his very own blog for dogs! He offers tips, tricks, and his own canine perspective of everything from natural dog care, camping and travelling with dogs, raw feeding, homemade treats, herbal remedies, human foibles and more! In addition, Beowulf has graciously allowed Ashley to post her new "Animal Companion Portraits", and occasionally comment on homebrewing, homemade goodies, and whatever else he deems beneficial to him.
So please check it out, and feel free to ask questions or just throw in your own 2 cents!

Cesar Millan probably gets droves of artwork/photos from fans(hence the #fanartfridays), so it is no surprise that it took several months for him to finally receive the watercolor portrait I did of his beloved "Daddy". I am just thrilled(and relieved!) that he did get it, and that he loves it! You can see his Twitter post on the link provided, or check out my own Twitter pages(@askbeowulf or @bookofkeys) where I 'favorited' the tweet! And please, feel free to 'follow'!!!

Well, this campaign has concluded and I did not quite reach my goal for funding. I did, however, produce over 23 new artworks! I also learned sooo much about social networking, crowdfunding, marketing, and much more...all things that most artists(just like me) have no clue about! So I am really very grateful for this experience, and will continue to work on the "Book of Keys" as I network around the Florida Keys, connecting with more like-minded peeps, garnering an interested audience, and collecting stories... You may now find these, as well as more new watercolors to come, right here on FAA for purchase! Thank you, one last time, for every bit of your loving and generous support!

Designers, decorators, individuals looking for original, one-of-a-kind pieces should definitely check out Southernmost Furniture in the Florida Keys! In addition to a fabulous furniture collection(including vintage rattan, modern, contemporary, or island-style) for living room, dining, bedroom, patio, etc., they also have a large selection of local fine art! Most recently, Ashley Kujan has brought in several paintings and hand-painted furniture pieces to adorn your tropical bungalows or estates! She is also happy to take requests for custom pieces, as well as murals and specialty paint finishes. Please visit Southernmost's and Ashley's Facebook pages for examples of these unique artworks! You may also find Ashley at the store on weekends painting new pieces...

An artist/painter in the decorative arts field for over 20 years, Ashley Kujan has an updated portfolio on Facebook. Anyone interested in hand-painted murals, specialty finishes, antiquing, etc. can now view her work in her albums. Interior designers, contractors, as well as homeowners and business owners from around the world are welcome to contact Ashley for quotes, samples, or general info. "Have paint, will travel!" She will also paint murals at her studio to be shipped anywhere, then installed(as wall covering) on site.
Much gratitude for your interest!
